Non-Escalation Policy
A positive outcome for any interaction with a disruptive customer is
what we want. It is therefore vitally important that you do not
"engage verbally" with or react to disruptive customers in a way that
might escalate the "situation". Remain calm, do not argue, and never
engage physically with anyone.

politely say "for safety reasons, please remove your hat, hoodie,
